Abstract

The distorted-wave theory of direct nuclear reactions, such as deuteron stripping, is generalized to include in the distorted waves the effects of the strong inelastic scattering which may be present when the nuclei show collective behaviour. The possible changes in parity and angular momentum selection rules are discussed in detail. Formulae are given for the general case, and also for a simple model in which only one level of the target nucleus (assumed even) can be excited.
